The table below summarises the plug types, voltage and frequency of electrical current in both Afghanistan and Libya.
Afghanistan | Libya | |
---|---|---|
Plug Types | C, D, F | D |
Voltage | 240V | 127V |
Frequency of electrical current | 50Hz | 50Hz |
In Afghanistan there's more than one plug type in use.
What type of plug does your appliance have?
You will need this adaptor:
Socket Type C
(Afghanistan) to Plug Type D
(Libya)
No adaptor needed
Libya uses Socket Type D, which is the same as the plug type of your appliances from Afghanistan. You will not need an adaptor.
You will need this adaptor:
Socket Type F
(Afghanistan) to Plug Type D
(Libya)
The voltages found in Afghanistan and Libya are significantly different.
Some appliances are compatible with multiple voltages. To find out if your appliance is one of them, check the appliance label and/or instruction booklet.
See examples of appliance labels
Is your appliance compatible with the voltage used in Libya (127V)?
If your appliance is not compatible with multiple voltages, you will need a transformer to adjust the voltage input when using your appliance in Libya.
The frequency found in Afghanistan and Libya is exactly the same (50Hz). Timing devices and appliances that use motors will function as expected under this frequency.
